Overall this is very good. I like the background. It loads a little slow still, but I dont think that is such a killer anymore. You are definitely be happy with your choice to set up a wordpress site starting now. Content Management Systems make life so much easier year-to-year, especially for those years when you dont have any students who really enjoy webdesign and coding.

I would recommend that for your banner images on the homepage however, that you simplify the graphics a bit. Between the background and the also "SUPER INTENSE" backgrounds of thes banners, there is a little bit of a visual conflict. Specifically it may cause some legibility issues. General rule of thumb: just because photoshop can do it, doesnt mean it should be done.

P.S. Keep up the great work though. Those bow ties are cool. I am sure Dean Kamen would approve.
